“Holy-Affirming,,
Holy-Denying,
Holy-Reconciling,
Transubstantiate in me
For my Being.’”
The other week, as an acquaintance of mine was babbling something interspersed with the term “holy trinity,” (and I wish here to make perfectly clear for the sake of not offending anyone that this acquaintance of mine is absolutely NOT catholic) my mind glommed onto the notion that briefly going over the basic common-cosmic law of three would not make for a bad topic. Everything = God, therefore, even more so that most basic universal law upon which all of existence without exception is derived. God’s engine, if you will . . .
G.I. Gurdjieff wrote it out this way:
” . . . three holy forces of the sacred Triamazikamno the said science calls as follows:
the first, the Affirming-force’ or the ‘Pushing-force’ or simply the ‘Force-plus’;
the second, the ‘Denying-force’ or the ‘Resisting-force’ or simply the ‘Force-minus’; and the third, the ‘Reconciling-force’ or the ‘Equilibrating-
force’ or the ‘Neutralizing-force.’”
The Tao Te Ching’s says: From the Tao is one; one begets two, two begets three, and three begets the myriad things. – A paraphrase of different translations of chapter 42.
Jewish mysticism speaks of three, the Hindus have the Trimurti, even the catholics have their famous trinity. And so, all this talk of three in just about every deep teaching on creationism naturally gives rise to the question: is there truth to these teachings of three, and if so, what does the teaching mean? And it is quite simple, and the foundation, three-dimensional as it may be, upon which the universe as we can conceive it as three-dimensional beings, exists.
Let’s start with the conceptual, the squeeze your brain stuff, and work our way back to the basics, shall we? I hear no dissent, here we go!
The Tao says first is the Tao. I like that term better than the term God, personally, it seems more dispassionate, and thus somehow more objective. Of course, the Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao. But it is all encompassing and omni-present and eternal through all of everything, and thus, from the limited concept of numbers, since it is perfectly all-inclusive in every way, it is pretty safe to call it One. Which immediately, of course gives rise to Two. Why? Because the second you start calling something One, that means there must be something other than One; a Two if you will. And Two doesn’t necessarily mean an existence; it could mean a non-existence, like “On” “Off.” But the idea is that if you can call something “One” there must be a “Two” to compare it to, otherwise, instead of “One” there’s just Tao, or, if you like, God. And if there is a Two, then there must be Three, and here’s why . . .
Two implies the complement of each other. Being and not being. On and Off. Back and Front. In and Out. Plus and Minus. In between, the whole of their disparate existences, their net sum, the Tao itself, becomes three. One means Two, thus One plus Two is Three. Which is two say that two forces perfectly opposite do not destroy each other, they go exist as themselves, but when they try to interact, something not quite either emerges. A harmonizing effect based on what happens between the two, that is one and two, and thus is created from these sacred basic existences all the many many different things we can be aware of, or in other words, three begets the myriad things.
So first is all of existence indivisible. Then, when one perceives the reality of that whole, two is distinguished because in indivisible there is no perspective but omni-perspective. And thus, to be able to know that, one must be able to consider the illusion of differentiation, which sets oneself from the whole of All, and thus is born two. And the interaction between All and part is the third force, the holy spirit of creating existence, which is how the different things of existence comes to be.
Ready for the easy part? Force Plus, Force Minus, and Force Equalizing. So it goes like this: you put together two opposing forces and they find their balance based on whichever of the forces is stronger.
You push down on a soft piece of bread, there now exists bread with a dent. You apply heat to dough, bread rises and won’t get moldy for a lot longer than if that same substance were instead left in a cool dark place. You keep water and flour separate, there is water, and flour, and no new creation.
Proton, Electron, Neutron.
Male, Female, Child. From this most sacred of impulses amongst polarized sexuality within them, for the most part, comes a chromosome-equal entity that will exist based upon the sum of its parts internally, and its experiences externally; which if you think about it gets into the number 6 as 1.
And so, what the trinity means is one plus two equals three in all creations without exception. For an existence may lean more one way or the other, but where both directions intersect, no matter which direction one leans toward, that is where the harmonization of their existence reconciles the two disparities, and that is where the culmination of all existence exists within it.
Unless it is dead, in which case it is about to become a tree, which, personally, I believe is only a plus!
P.S. Did someone mention transmutin’?
